A Poem by Tamara Simpson

Fragments
 
The   world   is   gone   hopes   and   dreams
 
shattered   eternal   life   swallowed   by 
 
the   flame   I   lie 
 
in   pieces   stones   among
 
the   ruins   resurrection   of   the   living
 
a   hopeless   toil
 
 
Evrèmonde   Evrèmonde   ye   show
 
no   mercy   to   the   fallen 
 
child   paid   the   price   in 
 
exile
 
 
torn   heart   body   fragmented
 
mind   advocates   of   the   tortured
 
soul   whirlwind   scattered   thoughts   among
 
the   dusty   air.
